The fact is, you can already do very much everything form the shell: create an app
cd application mkdir myapp cp -r welcome/* myapp delete an app rm -r applications copy a plugin cd ~/web2py ccpcplugin.py plugin_name app_source app_target install a remote app or remote plugin cd applications/myapp tar zxvf path/to/web2py.app.name.w2p etc. etc. The web2py/gluon/admin.py has API to access equivalent functionalities programmatically. I am not sure what else is needed. Can you give me an example? Massimo On Jul 6, 11:36 am, "(m)" <mithatko...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am wondering if this discussion ended up going anywhere.
